Courses Plus Student 645 PointsValidation Error!?
I get a different result during validation testing than the one shown in the video.
I used a different font, but apart from that the HTML is the same. I get the following error:
Line 7, Column 141: Bad value http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Fugaz+One|Open+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,700,800 for attribute href on element link: Illegal character in query: not a URL code point. β¦ne|Open+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,700,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
It appears to have an issue with the closing of the statement, with the '>' after type='text/css'> being the problem.
Any ideas?

Treehouse Project ReviewerI think the issue is with the link. the link above has a | between One and Open. When I click on it, it pulls up the CSS info for that font, but it has changed the | in between One and Open to %7C. Try changing your link out with the link below. I would not add the / before the closing > as suggested above, as the link tag doesn't us that.

167 PointsJust to be clear, I wasn't recommending that he left the / in, not that it matters just wanted to see if that was causing the issue.
Just be consistent with your use of the closing tags.
